This Pulitzer Prize-winning  history of World War II chronicles the dramatic rise and fall of the  Japanese empire, from the invasion of Manchuria and China to the atomic  bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Told from the Japanese perspective, The Rising Sun is, in the author's words, "a factual saga of people caught up in the  flood of the most overwhelming war of mankind, told as it happened -  muddled, ennobling, disgraceful, frustrating, full of paradox."
In weaving together the historical facts and human drama leading up  to and culminating in the war in the Pacific, Toland crafts a riveting  and unbiased narrative history.
